This morning we bought a massive consignment of wine to bring home. The car will be full! On our return we had a pleasant lunch and the we read and swam all afternoon. The sun was keeping us warm and the sky was cloudless. Absolutely perfect as an ending! Our holiday this year has truly been unforgettable. We have found a level of relaxation we have never known before.
We have learned quite a lot about Spanish cuisine this time with staying at different Paradores where the chefs have based their work on local tradition and produce. This will show itself in cooking later in the year. We have enjoyed the wine and the beer. The coffee we drank here we brought with us. We are looking forward to a cup of tea!
The Toledo Parador we visited last year so we know what to expect , and it has the most stunning views of the medieval city of Toledo. We shall be dining on the terrace and when darkness falls the city lights will wow us again. They floodlight the cathedral and the Alcazar.
Probably this will be the last blog written in Spain but I shall bring you up to date about our journey home in a few days time.
On 1st October we travel to Rochdale to celebrate our Golden Wedding with the family so we have that to look forward to. Our granddaughter Ellie will be able to tell us all about her first two weeks at university!
